ARIANE FOKS

Arianne Foks lives and works in Paris and Brussels. Her drawings and her performances, question the real, capturing a daily life or a life fantasized. Her performances question our relationship to the world by creating situations where the participant finds himself faced with a decision to make; for example, choose between ‘die’ or ‘eat’. These questions, both absurd and concrete, try to transform us; these poetic metamorphoses blur our boundaries between realities and personal fictions.
